Castlebar win in Sligo with 8 points to spare and without hamstrung Paddy Durkan. Another 1-5 for Douglas who also got a black card. Should be a very interesting Connacht semi … I’m leaning towards Mitchells.

Some very low scoring games for such good weather and relatively solid pitches for the time of year, O’Mahony’s-Sarsfields 1-8 to 0-8 is poor, Vincent’s 13-07 not much better, presumably pukey football to some degree? Well done Vincents. Kildare & Meath football showing no sign of improvement yet.

RTE’s website “live scoring” is as slow as ever. Radio way ahead of it.
